Ajisebutu told reporters that the victim was allegedly locked up in a room for three days without food by her father, who was currently at large.
He said the girl was rescued by policemen from the Challenge police station.
“The police had acted on a tip-off from neighbours. The police responded swiftly and visited the house at Ajeigbe area, Ring Road, Ibadan,” he said.
